How do I check the transmission fluid level in my Audi A1?

I seem to be having some issues with my transmission and I want to make sure the fluid level is correct. What steps do I need to take to check it?

Checking the transmission fluid level is an important step in maintaining your Audi A1. First, park your car on level ground and wait at least 10 minutes after driving for the fluid to settle. Locate the transmission dipstick, usually near the back of the engine in front of the firewall. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and reinsert it. Then, remove it again and check the level against the markings on the dipstick. If it is low, add transmission fluid as needed, being careful not to overfill.

You should also check the condition of the transmission fluid while you're at it. It should be clear and red, without any discoloration or burnt smell. If it looks or smells off, it's time for a fluid change. Regularly checking and changing your transmission fluid can improve the performance and longevity of your Audi A1's transmission.
